After giving thanks and spending precious time with family and friends, turn all those positive feelings into positive actions and give the Gift of Life.

All blood drive participants will receive a special, limited edition Redskins – Red Cross t-shirt, as well as a chance to win a pair of tickets to a Redskins game, courtesy of the American Red Cross.
The American Red Cross does not need blood – patients do. Every two seconds someone in America gets a blood transfusion. Five million patients will need blood this year. A single car accident victim can require as many as 100 pints of blood.
